TRANSLATION

Refrain: 'Come here, O Syama and play with Fagu-powder with us! If You win this fight I will make the whole world sing Your glories."

1) "If You argue: "I'm all alone and You have so many assistants", then let Visakha and her whole group be on Your side."

2) O Lalita, My sakhi, come and show us how to play this again. Then You will know how this game is played.

3) "If You say: "I have no colored powder", then take as much of it as You want. It will not empower Your game anyway."

4) "If You have no syringe, no problem, I can give You thousands of them. O friend, take as many as You want."

5) "You bear the name Giridhari and the people call You a hero – that reputation will now be shattered!"

6) "Hear Me, O rasika Syama! Save Your reputation by winning! Give the word and I will supply You with colored powder!"
